Tailgate and motor vehicle

Abstract

A tailgate of a motor vehicle has an extensible wind-deflecting device which, in its non-use position, is preferably arranged, so as to lie within an outer contour, in a stowage space. Here, the tailgate is formed substantially from an inner and an outer panel, with a collecting device, which is connected to the inner and to the outer panel and which is arranged in the region of the stowage space, being provided for collecting water which has infiltrated into the stowage space.

1. A tailgate of a motor vehicle, the tailgate comprising:
 an extensible wind-deflecting device; an inner panel; 
 an outer panel; and 
 a collecting device connected to said inner and outer panels and defining a partial region of a stowage space, said collecting device being provided for collecting water which has infiltrated into said stowage space, said extensible wind-deflecting device which, in a non-use position, is disposed, so as to lie within said stowage space. 
 
     
     
       2. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , wherein said collecting device is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of plastics and metals. 
     
     
       3. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , wherein said collecting device is formed in a manner of a basin/trough and is sealingly adhesively bonded in an encircling fashion at least to said outer panel resulting in an adhesive bond. 
     
     
       4. The tailgate according to  claim 3 , wherein said adhesive bond ensures an elastically sealed connection between said collecting device and said outer panel at least in a temperature range from −40° C.<T<90° C. 
     
     
       5. The tailgate according to  claim 1 ,
 further comprising an outflow spout; and 
 wherein said collecting device has an outflow projecting into said outflow spout. 
 
     
     
       6. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , further comprising a bracket, said collecting device is fixedly connected to said outer panel in a region of said bracket. 
     
     
       7. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , further comprising at least one metallic retaining element disposed on said collecting device, by means of said retaining element, said collecting device is fixed to said inner panel. 
     
     
       8. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , wherein said collecting device has at least one passage opening formed therein for an element which drives the wind-deflecting device. 
     
     
       9. The tailgate according to  claim 1 , wherein said collecting device is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of high-temperature-resistant plastics, aluminum and pressure-die-cast magnesium. 
     
     
       10. The tailgate according to  claim 6 , further comprising a solid punch rivet, said collecting device is riveted by said solid punch rivet, to said outer panel in said region of said bracket. 
     
     
       11. The tailgate according to  claim 7 , wherein said metallic retaining element is a metallic band. 
     
     
       12. A motor vehicle, comprising:
 a stowage space; 
 an extensible wind-deflecting device which, in a non-use position, is disposed, so as to lie within an outer contour, in said stowage space; 
 a tailgate, containing:
 an inner panel; 
 an outer panel; and 
 a collecting device connected to said inner and outer panels and disposed in a region of said stowage space, said collecting device being provided for collecting water which has infiltrated into said stowage space. 
 
 
     
     
       13. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , wherein said collecting device is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of plastics and metals. 
     
     
       14. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , wherein said collecting device is formed in a manner of a basin/trough and is sealingly adhesively bonded in an encircling fashion at least to said outer panel resulting in an adhesive bond. 
     
     
       15. The motor vehicle according to  claim 14 , wherein said adhesive bond ensures an elastically sealed connection between said collecting device and said outer panel at least in a temperature range from −40° C.<T<90° C. 
     
     
       16. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 ,
 further comprising an outflow spout; and 
 wherein said collecting device has an outflow projecting into said outflow spout. 
 
     
     
       17. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , further comprising a bracket, said collecting device is fixedly connected to said outer panel in a region of said bracket. 
     
     
       18. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , further comprising at least one metallic retaining element disposed on said collecting device, by means of said retaining element, said collecting device is fixed to said inner panel. 
     
     
       19. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , wherein said collecting device has at least one passage opening formed therein for an element which drives said wind-deflecting device. 
     
     
       20. The motor vehicle according to  claim 12 , wherein said collecting device is formed from a material selected from the group consisting of high-temperature-resistant plastics, aluminum and pressure-die-cast magnesium. 
     
     
       21. The motor vehicle according to  claim 17 , further comprising a solid punch rivet, said collecting device is riveted by said solid punch rivet, to said outer panel in said region of said bracket.
